You may not encounter the vibrant changing leaves in 30A that you would elsewhere in the country this time of year, but you can expect milder weather which makes time at Fonville Park in Alys Beach that much more thrilling! Green spaces, and the beauty of nature are on full display for those who are looking forward to connecting with the great outdoors during a fall adventure this direction. In general, Fonville Park is recognized as one of the original Alys Beach parks, giving it some historical relevance that locals and visitors alike will love.

An activity that’s perfectly suited for fall weather!

Fall in Florida still offers up plenty of options for spending time in the great outdoors. For angling enthusiasts, this means that 30A is ideal for casting a line when you make your way here in autumn.

Many travelers profess with passion that sunsets along 30A are more vivid in the fall season, and there’s a good chance they’re right—but you should definitely check it out for yourself! Pair two fun viewing options when you’re in the area by making Seaside your sunset viewing stop for a day. This charming town is designed around an architectural style known as New Urbanism.

The coastline is dotted with delightful pavilions and it’s from one of these that the sunset can be enjoyed. Bring your camera and your sense of admiration and adventure. It promises to be a colorful moment.
There’s perhaps nothing more quintessentially fall than taking time to sip a savory coffee and notice a little bit of chill in the air.
